the us and china are locked in an increasingly hostile competition in the south china sea, where china has built and militarised a string of artificial islands in defiance of international law. the us responded very slowly. it took a long time before they fully appreciated what china was building. by the time china had really started militarising these islands, it was too late for the united states to respond, and nobody wanted to go to war with china over what they called "reefs and rocks" in the south china sea. $5.3 trillion of trade transits through the south china sea, very near the spratlys. china's actions were, in a sense, an attempt to be able to cut the carotid artery of global trade. so many of the conversations i have had in this city boil down to one concern: that china's rise is now just too rapid for the united states to manage. like those islands that appeared almost out of nowhere, there is a sense that unless the us gets a grip on the china challenge, and soon, it might well become unmanageable. the stated chinese government policy is to dominate emerging technologies

well, i think china is celebrating the centenary of the founding of the communist party of china, the biggest, largest, most important political party ever in human history, with almost 100 million party members. and the party is, indeed, invasive. it's omnipotent and omnipresent. however, i would say if any political force anywhere in the world really has some justification to be very proud of its achievements, it is the communist party of china. it has very solid track records. and i think this celebration is not only celebrating the communist party of china, but also the great transformation that china has gone through over the past a245 years in particular, or ever since 1949. this is not a celebration of the power grip. this is truly a good occasion for everyone to celebrate why we are the chinese today, and why we believe tomorrow will be better than today. you used an interesting word there — you described the party as "omnipotent". do you think it is healthy in any society to have a political organisation that is — your word — "omnipotent"? well, i would say societies ev
